"A sparkling wine (Yves Beck)"
The Wiebelsberg Grand Cru 2021 is deep, pure, and elegant on the nose, fascinating, intense, and layered, full of minerals and herbaceous or floral aromas such as woodruff, but characterized by ripe, concentrated yellow fruits. The full-bodied and rich palate is an elegant, dense and generous Riesling, very intense, well-concentrated and even powerful, with a tight structure and a long, complex finish, finely tannic, full of minerals and salts. It is still very young." (Wine Advocate 2025)

Wine rated (2025 guide) 95/100
Rated estate (2023 guide) 3 stars (These represent the excellence of French vineyards. The best terroirs cultivated by the greatest winemakers. Tasting their wine is always a magical moment.)
About wine:
22 months of aging for Wiebelsberg, a wine with a finely fleshy texture, which unfolds between subtle bitterness and a spicy finish, but still needs time to develop.
About the estate:
Antoine, Marc Kreydenweiss's son, has been at the helm of this estate in Andlau since 2007, one of the pioneers of biodynamics in Alsace. The variety of terroirs on the estate and their subtle interpretation has always been a strong point here, reinforced by the changes implemented by Antoine (slower pressing and prolonged aging on lees). The risks taken in vinifying a number of cuvées without sulfur (or with minimal levels) are paying off and do not result in the slightest defect. A small range of wines made from purchased organic grapes has been created under the name Lune à Boire. The Pinot Noir and macerated wines (not rated) are of the highest quality. Standards have returned to their highest level with wines of rare vitality, and continue to improve, with ambitious four-year aging for the 2017 Riesling grands crus. These exciting wines, with their rare vitality, have earned the estate its third star this year.

Wine rated (2024 guide) 96/100
About wine:
From the steep slopes of Wiebelsberg at the entrance to Andlau, on sandy and pure sandstone soils. Aged for two years (one year in oak barrels and one year in stainless steel vats). The initial attack is supple, heralding a precise wine that is not strict, but very straightforward! A beautiful sense of harmony where power and tension create the link with a denser and more supple touch. A sparkling wine that needs aeration if enjoyed in its youth. 2027-2047
